Biosafety regulatory body

  • What does the RCGM include?

    RCGM shall lay down procedures restricting or prohibiting production, sale, importation and use of such genetically engineered organisms of cells as are mentioned in the Schedule of Rules, 1989..

  • What is the role of RCGM in biosafety?

    RCGM shall monitor the safety related aspects in respect of ongoing recombinant DNA (r-DNA) projects and activities involving Genetically Engineered (GE) organisms/ hazardous microorganisms..

  • IBSC is the nodal point for interaction within an organisation for implementation of the biosafety regulatory framework.
    An IBSC is to be constituted by every organisation engaged in research, handling and production activities related to GMOs and each IBSC has a nominee appointed by DBT.
Biosafety Boards Operating In India There are at present two apex regulatory bodies viz. Department of Biotechnology (DBT) and Ministry of Environment and 
Biosafety defines the containment conditions under which infectious agents can be safely manipulated.
iosafety (biosafety regulation) means the need to protect human and animal health and environment from the possible adverse effects of the products of.
The objective of these Regulations is to ensure that potential adverse effects of genetically modified organisms are addressed to protect human health and the environment when conducting research. A person shall not undertake research on GMOs without prior written approval from the Authority.

How should a national biosafety and biosecurity framework (NBBF) be implemented?

A comprehensive evaluation of existing regulatory arrangements, including:

  • the identification of any gaps
  • forms part of the recommended step-wise approach to implementing a national biosafety and biosecurity framework (NBBF) and is described in more detail later in this document (see Section 3:
  • STEP 2).

    • Why is biosafety important for public health control?

    Biosafety, biosecurity and effective regulatory management of global disease threats to humans and animals are critical for public health control by national and international organizations.
